Throwback: "The colorfulness and the way of drawing is the subject matter. Eventually that's everything painting conveys."
In this interview, Uwe Kowski is giving a tour through his studio and exhibition POOL22 at our gallery in Berlin.

Uwe Kowski (*1963, based in Berlin) does not want to capture or document history with his paintings, the most important message is the painterly itself and to play with the viewers vision. POOL22 is not only the title of one of the artist’s sixteen new works for the show; but also the term refers much more broadly to the conglomerate of ideas, thought processes and associations that have occupied Kowski's painterly thinking over the past year.

Carsten Nicolai’s artistic output has taken many forms over the past three decades. His 2014 piece unicolor – showing at LUX: New Wave of Contemporary Art, a new exhibition co-curated by Fact and SUUM Project in 2023 – is one of the artist’s most immersive works.

In this film, Nicolai talks to Fact about the ideas behind unicolor and how the musical experimentation in Berlin that followed the fall of the wall in 1989 kickstarted an ongoing career of artistic innovation. You will see the installation unfolding against a long projection wall with two mirror walls on each side, creating the impression of extending into infinity.

Presented at LUX: New Wave of Contemporary Art at London’s 180 Studios and SUUM X, Dongdaemun Design Plaza, Seoul until December 2023.

Produced by LUX: New Wave of Contemporary Art / Fact 180

Enjoy this intimate view into the solo presentation BODEN by Ricarda Roggan at our gallery in Leipzig and take a look behind the scenes.

The photographer describes her artistic work, the process of searching and finding, what interests her in a particular motive and how the always analoge images come into being. In the second part of the video, Ricarda Roggan is taking us into her studio for an exclusive sneak peek into the exhibtion making.

"It is always a conversation with the things or with the spaces, so that I can ask questions like, “What's going on here and why is it like this? And why are there such strange, such scratch marks in these clay walls?” Who was there 100, 200 years ago?” I'm just incredibly interested in that." (Ricarda Roggan)

Follow us into the universe of painting and drawing by Stefan Guggisberg and learn how his works are created with very unique techniques.

In this video the artist is giving you a tour through his exhibition Facing the Light at our Berlin gallery and great insight into his work series of oil on paper and iPad drawings.
"In fact what impresses me about painting is that you can go back 40,000 years and these images are still there and, above all, they still reach us. So the drawings permeate everything - it reaches and touches us. And that's a form of communication that I think only exists once." (Stefan Guggisberg)

Don’t miss this video about Maja Behrmann's first major solo show FINDLING at our gallery in Leipzig. Great insight into the working process of the artist and installation of the hanging sculptures.

Maja Behrmann (*1994, lives and works in Leipzig) avoids restricting herself to one medium, using sculptures, textiles, and prints in equal measure. In her work, she takes up the challenge of putting together a repertoire of forms that she expands through their relationship with each other.
